ATTRACTION - CHAPTER 9&10

{WHAT’S WRONG WITH ME?}
Damina sat blinking at Anthony whose hard face was on hers.
His words kept going over her head and no matter how much she try in thinking his words in a pure brotherly way, it didn’t seem to work.
“What do you mean by that Anthony?” She ask waiting for his reply.
“Well…..well….I….how do you like it?” He ask suddenly confusing her.
“Like what?” She asked.
“Well what I said to you right now is part of a line I have to say in a drama we will be having at school,I was just practicing” he explained.
“So what you said a while ago is a line in a drama you will be playing in at school?” She said again wanting to get the fact straight and he nodded.
“Yes. It’s a drama I have no interest In what ever but then Jane forced me to join which got me doing so. I was only practicing ” Anthony said which got Damina nodding in reply.
“I will just get my phone and we can start with the lesson” She said moving towards the bed to take her phone and Anthony found his gaze trailing to her the curve of her @zz
Hitting his head he turn to the book in front of him pretending to be busy with it when she joined him.
“Shall we?” She asked while he nodded in reply.
A while later Damina left his room promising to be back the next day for another tutoring and immediately she left
Anthony went to lay on his bed touching his chest where his heart was skipping wildly.
This is crazy! Just what is going on with him? Why on earth did he say that to her in the first place?
And he was even starring lustfully at her @zz, he thought groaning out in frustration.
Never has he felt this urge before not even with Jane who happens to be his girl friend.
“What’s wrong with me?” He muttered as he let out a sigh…..
****
Damina got to her room still thinking about what Anthony said to her earlier when she got a call from Stephen again, she let out a sigh before picking up the call.
“Finally you picked” he said with triumph.
“Don’t you ever give up?” She said softly.
“If you are talking about giving up on the call, well yes I would have given up if you hadn’t pick up this call but if you meant giving up on you entirely then I that won’t be happening cause I happen to be interested in you” he said bluntly.
“Guy, you just met me a week ago, so how on earth are you suddenly interested in me?” Damina ask wondering how on earth she attracted a guy on her arrival.
“Cause I think you are different from the other girls I know”
“How are you sure that am different when you know nothing about me” Damina injected.
“Well it’s true that I don’t know much about you but I want to,give me the chance to” Stephen said and she wonder why she felt that he’s being sincere.
“Am sorry but I…..”
“No! Don’t give me your answer, just let me show it to you. See you at school tomorrow ” he said ending the call before she could say a thing in reply.
“Why is he so straight forward ” she muttered as her thought went back to Anthony.
Should she tell him about Stephen? He might get angry again.
But wouldn’t it be better if she ask him about Stephen to know if he’s serious with her or not?
Deciding to do just that, she left her room in the slippers he bought for her and when she got to his room it was to find the door slightly open.
She open the door and stop mid way when she heard him talking dirty on the phone.
“Oh really? You wanna f-__-k me till I Com?” He said naughtily.
“Sure I want the same too, where should we meet love” he added.
“Let’s meet at Stephen place,your parents house was a mess the last time” he said again.
“Fine, I will be there Jane ” he called before ending the call and immediately Damina left his door way heading to her room before he caught her eavesdropping.
She should have known that it would only be Jane he would be speaking to.
Some how that thought made her feel angry, she h@??s the fact that he is like that with Jane.
She wants him to be like that with her, she…..
“What are you thinking!” She thought hitting her head hard that she let out an ouch!
“What’s wrong with me” she muttered as she let out a sigh.

~NEXT DAY~
Damina walk out of the house only to see Mary seated at the front seat already.
Well at least she doesn’t get to seat beside Anthony, she thought within before getting into the back seat as Anthony walk out of the car looking smart and handsome in his uniform.
She felt her heart racing like mad and immediately she looked away trying to calm her racing her heart before he gets into the car but it didn’t seem to work cause even as he got into the front seat,his cologne drifted into her nostrils disturbing her.
“How come you are the one seating here?” Anthony ask Mary.
“I came first and so I deserve the seat” Mary replied hotly.
“That rule doesn’t apply when it comes to my car. So from tomorrow hence fourth you will be seating at the back while Damina seats in the front” he said gruffly.
“That isn’t necessary Anthony,I can seat at the back” Damina told him.
“It is necessary, your place is right next to me. Keep that In mind” he said while Damina wondered why he keep saying things that make her heart flutter.
“This is unfair, before she showed up I was always seating next to you and now this…..am gonna tell mom” Mary said getting out of the car and immediately she left Anthony drove the car out of the mansion.
“Why did you leave her behind?” Damina ask.
“It’s time she grows up,time for her to learn that not everything will go the way she wants” he replied hotly.
“But still…..” She stop talking when he stop the car.
“Mary’s tantrum started from childhood and I blame my mother for indulging her in so many things which has spoilt her rottenly. If she doesn’t learn now then she won’t ever. So just keep in mind that she will get to school safe and come to the front seat” he said.
“I think it’s best if I stay at the back” she replied gruffly thinking about the things he said to Jane yesterday.
She didn’t know that got her angry each time she thinks about it.
Anthony said some thing she couldn’t decipher before getting out of the car and coming to her side of the car.
“Get down” he ordered.
“I won’t!” She replied fiercely and immediately he bent towards her pulling off her seat belt attempting to carry her but she push his hands away.
“What are you doing?”
“Carrying you to the front seat” he replied.
“You just won’t give up right?” She ask.
“Come seat at the front cause me driving you while you seat at the back will make it look like am your driver” he said which some how made a point to her.
“Fine then” she replied getting out of the back seat to stay in the front and once again before she could put on her seat belt, he helped her with it swiftly.
“Cute” he muttered starring down at her while she sat feeling lost just by starring into his eyes.

~ PARTY ~ A PEEK TO THE FUTURE (THREE DAYS LATER)
Damina stood at a table with Stephen feeling lost when she look up to see Anthony gaze on her.
Though he was with Jane, his eyes never left her which made her feel some weird sensation in her.
The MC taking hold of the mic caught everyone attention which got her looking away from him.
“Okay every one, we will be playing a game and it’s gonna be called light out for 10 seconds” he said while everyone began murmuring in excitement.
“So within that 10 seconds you are free to do what you want with any one you want while the light is out but remember that it’s only for 10 seconds and so you’ve got to be fast…..so every one, the game starts now” The MC said as someone standing by the hall light turned it off causing darkness every where.
“Stay close to me Damina” Stephen voice drifted to her in the dark but with people going about,she found herself moving away from Stephen and she would have fallen if some one hadn’t hold onto her in the dark.
“Thank you” she muttered and pull away only to be drawn back into that stranger arms.
Before she could say Jack,Damina felt the stranger lips on her…..
